What to Expect When You Meet with Us

It’s natural to not know what to do or anticipate when you need to meet with a personal injury attorney.We at The Thibeaux Firm understand how intimidating things can seem at first. In fact, most accident victims we’ve helped had never needed a lawyer before in their lives. But having an attorney is a serious thing. So, we take the time to sit down with you, hear your story, explain what you should know, and make you as comfortable about the process as we can.

When you meet with us for a free consultation, you can expect the following to happen:

  • You will tell us all about your accident, from how it happened to the injuries you’ve suffered, and from the medical care you’ve been receiving up to how you’re feeling today.
  • We will assess who could be liable for paying you compensation for the accident.
  • We will go over any evidence you have, such as cell phone pictures from the accident scene and medical records that document your injuries.
  • If you were in an auto accident, we will walk you through the process for property damage claims in Louisiana.
  • We will tell you how our contingency fee agreement works. In short, you only owe us 25% of the money we recover for you to pay for attorney fees.
  • We will take all the time necessary to answer every one of your questions. If you have additional questions or concerns after our initial meeting, you can always reach out to us.
